For Amps, I Use an Egnater Tweaker for Home/studio stuff and A Peavey XXX Head with a mesa Stack for jamming with the boys.

I'm looking into recording gear now, looking at a Tascam 8-track with a cd-R but haven't really decided. Anything I've ever recorded has come out of a board...not the best with software. My bassist and I share Vocal Duties and our songs are kinda Doom Blues/Stoner Rock. We can clean up alright for more traditional rock..but not often.

Re: The HM Musicians' Thread

Ooooooooh '67 Gibson SG... OOOOOhhhhh!!!That's the one I like the most of all your guitars.I'm a Gibson/Marshall kinda sound total fan.

Do you have anything we could hear from you??? I for one listen to Punk but I'm pretty much into Dark Sinister \M/etal too.

And yeah, while I'm here, this is the best song I ever composed. And in 20 years I've done a whole lot. Done music, lyrics and am playing bass/singing on it. Recorded with a cassette tape during practice. Miss those days.

Re: The HM Musicians' Thread

^ Not bad at all man. I wrote punk stuff in Highscool. We had a band then and wrote a handful of original tunes. Yeah, my SG sounds very nice. My list is basically ordered by the most amount of playing time. No one really knows about Lado Guitars but they're extremely well build and sell used for WAY less than they should. I've turned down a 1200$ offer for my H-300. The SG is a 67 though and you can imagine that it's brittle so I try not to rock out too hard on it...that said..it's still a beast.

I'll try to see what I can load onto my computer. Like I mentioned, I'm really looking to set up a recording station to lay down some decent demos..that will help speed things along.

Re: The HM Musicians' Thread

Thanks man, I appreciate. My cousin has a Lado and I gotta admit it sounds very good.As for recording, I'm what you can call a true believer in the real DIY to the bone approach. The more garage it sounds, the better for me.

Re: The HM Musicians' Thread

Does anyone/everyone Name their instruments? I've traditionally named all my guitars. Always a woman's name. Like many women, I've parted with some and retired the names. Sometimes it takes a while before I give them a name. I've got one as it is which I haven't named yet.

Re: The HM Musicians' Thread

Nice. Very Much in line with Past and present Names of mine: Molly, Darla, Judy....

Right now, My wife and My Acoustics are Betty and Veronica. My Lado Standard is Lizzie, SG is Judy. One of the H-300 is Bender and the other is nameless. I thought of Naming that one Flexo, because the two are practically identical...but it has to be a girl's name...it'll come.

Re: The HM Musicians' Thread

Hahaha yeah.Man guitar is something I never understood. These damn chords drive me nuts. In fact the only one I can play is the classic power chord. No chords to play on a bass. Well sometimes yes but it's not full on chords all the time.
